Hello Team, Currently i have setup the retention period for metrics and traces for 3 days, now i need to move my data to the s3 bucket as i have installed signoz through k8s helm cart, once i move the data to s3, so is the data will be in a readable format or not ?

If you query old data present in s3, clickhouse will automatically fetch it as required.

@nitya-signoz any link or docs available for the same.

So apart from adding the retention setting in signoz you don’t need to do anything. But if you want to learn more about tiered storages of clickhouse here are some links. https://altinity.com/blog/2019/11/29/amplifying-clickhouse-capacity-with-multi-volume-storage-part-2 https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/3605
